well an update on the set up for the p5
first fuel injection.
i scrapped the old setup i had with two injectors mounted before the throttle body. upon removal and inspection of the stock manifold i found room above the stock rail to mount 4 more 280 cc injectors with a custom rail.. this way i will eliminate the need for upgrading the stock injectors and leave the stock set up to run the way it was designed for off boost cruising speeds.
the VTCS solenoid is being scrapped. the VICS solenoid will be mounted on the firewall. this will clear the way for griding of the bolt mounts from the two solenoids and allow the placement for a clean injector install.
second MAF,
it was flowed today and will be converted to a 75 mm BLOW THRU meter that will measure the amount and temperature of the compressed air charge coming from the turbo.
third ignition,
we have succesfully controlled the ignition timing using all the stock sensors including the coil packs. we will next try to see if we can run individual packs to each of the cylinders but my budget will dictate whether or not we go thru with this.
we are able to control when the ecu sees the ckp signal and fire the coils for ignition.its not neccesarily ignition RETARD we are controlling, instead the entire firing process.
waiting for the pistons still but should be here any day .
i will start posting some pics once the engine is completley apart and the install is taking place so there will be a steady flow of info day by day. instaed of giant pauses so please be patient
also if things continue to go as planned a dyno run should be scheduled for next sat. this will be videotaped for everyone to see the following day. thats it for now. will post more info on the procedure tommorow.
